Characterization of the transcriptional response to hypoxia in MDA-MB-231-shCAIX, MCF7-shCAIX and the respective control cells grown as multicellular spheroids under hypoxic or normoxic conditions

ABSTRACT: To interrogate the hypoxia response pathways affected by the depletion of CAIX in BC cells, we performed gene expression profiling using SurePrint G3 Human Gene Expression 60K microarrays in MDA-MB-231-shCAIX, MCF7-shCAIX and the respective control cells grown as multicellular spheroids under hypoxic or normoxic conditions. The human breast cancer cell lines MDA-MB-231 and MCF7 were purchased from the European Collection of Cell Cultures (ECACC, UK) and maintained as recommended by the manufacturer. To generate stable CAIX silenced cells, cell lines were transfected with a pool of three plasmids each encoding CAIX-specific shRNA (1 µg) and a negative control (NC) plasmids encoding scrambled shRNAs (1 µg) (Santa Cruz Biotechnology, TX, USA) using shRNA transfection medium and shRNA transfe
